Blaird

Harper Blaird is a high elven ranger and a member of the Harpers in Act Three. He joins  Jaheira in the battle against the Dark Urge, should the latter choose to accept and embrace their heritage.

Involvement

Temple of Bhaal

Should the Dark Urge defeat  Orin the Red and embrace Bhaal's gift, becoming the latter's Chosen, the Harpers set up an ambush at the entrance of the Temple of Bhaal, provided  Jaheira is alive.

Led by Jaheira and accompanied by  Minsc (if rescued), the Harpers stand guard on the bridge leading out of the temple, preventing the party from leaving. The party then have a brief exchange with Jaheira concerning the Dark Urge's role as the Chosen of Bhaal, and should Minsc be present, have the ability to psionically control him into stabbing Jaheira in the back through his Mind Flayer Tadpole. Doing so immediately kills Jaheira, and triggers combat with Minsc, Blaird, and the rest of the Harpers.

• [WISDOM] Ease his confusion. Try to control him. (DC 25)

Alternatively, if the Dark Urge withdraws from Minsc's mind, Jaheira can potentially convince  Gale (if under 20 approval),  Karlach (if under 40 approval), or  Wyll (always) to turn their side, forcing the party to kill them in the ensuing fight with the Harpers.
